- Summary:
- "In this training video, Erving Polster demonstrates Gestalt therapy techniques with a resistant client. In numerous vignettes over the course of treatment, Polster continuously engages Gerald in here-and-now interactions, matching wits, joining him with humor, and challenging his defenses with a delicate balance of confrontation and empathy. Erving and Miriam Polster provide commentary on the case and approach. You will understand the fundamental principles, goals, and techniques of Gestalt therapy, and identify key differences between psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, such as the use of the therapeutic relationship and dream work. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher
